Technical Information - No other tools are needed to use this.
Description - An online dictionary that gives the user definitions of words as well as synonyms. When you type in the beginning letters of the word the application predicts the word and you have many variations of the word to choose from. It also gives the part of speech for the word.
Use - This would be a great tool for students looking for a simple definition of a word. My concern is that it does not give a derivative of the word. Often when students have a base for a word they can use that to learn new words.
